Announcing the First Always-On Marketing Guide Designed for Finance Marketers

March 17, 2015

Today, engaging customers means having a conversation and nurturing a relationship over time, rather than sending one-sided, short-term messages. It means consistently delivering relevant, always-on content. But what does that kind of marketing mean for financial marketers, who must evaluate every company statement against legal and compliance concerns?

We asked that question of social and content marketers, including the trailblazers leading social and content marketing programs for organizations such as Citi, BlackRock, Digitas, and Zurich.

A road map for steering your company to an always-on social strategy.

From defining your strategy to securing the support of top management, sourcing content and measuring performance, this guide is designed help you ditch the overwhelm, get past the naysayers, and plant your feet firmly on the road to always-on marketing success.

“The risk of not doing something interesting is bigger than not doing anything at all.” – Paul Butcher, Head of Digital Communications, Citi

Valuable perspectives on working with legal and compliance.

“If you get a good partner, legal will help you figure out how to create good content that’s compelling and that people want to share versus advertising that is totally vetted and, you know, focus-grouped, and figured out to the hilt.” – Anne-Marie Kline, former SVP Social & Content, Digitas

"Through a combination of technology, training, and policy, we have proven we can engage in a productive dialogue with regulators and develop an effective working model that empowers firms, marketing teams, and regulated employees to successfully engage and delight customers." – Yasmin Zarabi, Head of Compliance, Hearsay Social

“Prioritize influencers who are the most likely to have time available when you need them.” – Caitlin Roberson, VP West, Skyword

Strategies for getting everyone on board, from top management on down.

“Social media amplifies and touches everything that you do. You need to look at social media as an all-encompassing umbrella, rather than maintaining it in one division.” – Amy McIlwain VP, Social & Digital Strategy, Moore Communications Group

“As always-on has evolved within our overall marketing strategy, we realized measurement needed to be taken a step further.” – Monu Kalsi, VP, Head of Digital Marketing, Zurich North America
